I would love it if number 2 were true. Absolutely love it.

Your Abraxas sounds interesting.

Number 3 probably is true. Even vain ol'Voldie must have a limit to the amount of worship Bella can throw at him, before he starts getting unnerved. And it's not like he can complain either: "Well, yes, fantacism is all well and good, but for the next war I think what we need is a little more self-seeking pragmatism, a little less blind adoration, don't you think?"
